niche websites

Yesterday I posted information about the first website that I will be focusing on getting top rankings for Pat Flynn’s Niche Site Duel 2. It is a new and used RV website for the San Diego market. You can find out about the progress that I have made so far on that post.

The second website I will be building is a Metal Detector website. There is still a lot of work to complete the website as I only analyzed the top keywords to initially pick the domain name, I have not started doing keyword research to find the additional keywords

I am so looking forward to the Niche Site Duel that I recently created a forum for people looking to follow along at http://www.nichesiteduel2.com where people can post their questions and help each other in their quest to earn money online.
Working with a VA I was able to get the main websites set up, now I need to do additional keyword research in Long Tail Pro to find the keyword phrases that I will focus on within the content. Initially I will be working on rewriting all the content on the website and later move on to blog posts on the featured products and services I will be offering within my niche.

Making Money Online with Niche Websites
I came across this podcast from Yaro Starak about Ian McConnell who reveals his online success story about his Model Train website. It can really help you to brainstorm when you are trying to determine what type of niche you are looking to target. You might not think it would be possible to make over $300,000 with a hobby niche website, let alone a hobby niche website about model trains!
But in this audio podcast, Yaro interview Ian about his incredible success of turning a hobby in to an amazing success story.
Niche website success stories are one of my favorite
